Soils and Parent Materials
The Soils and Parent Materials of Dunlap Quadrangle was developed from a recompilation of the Soil Survey of Peoria County (Walker 1992). The recompilation was produced specifically for the Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS) under an agreement with the U.S. Department of Agriculture-Natural Resources Conservation Service (USDA-NRCS). The soil map unit boundaries (soil series) were transferred onto mylar overlays superimposed on 1:12,000-scale (quarter-quadrangle) prints of the 1998/99 Digital Orthophoto Quadrangles and the 1996 U.S. Geological Survey digital line graphics of the hypsography (contour lines). The mylar overlays with hand-drawn boundaries were then digitally scanned. The resulting raster image was translated into vector data using ArcInfo software at the ISGS. This process created a digital database to which various attributes of the soil series were added.
The soil series displayed on this map are organized by their parent material in the map legend using a soil key provided by the NRCS office in Champaign, Illinois (table 1). The map labels consist of numbers or of a combination of numbers and a letter. The initial numbers represent the number of each soil series. An uppercase letter following these numbers on the map indicates the class of slope: A, 0–2%; B, 2–5%; C, 5–10%; D, 10–15%; E, 15–25%; F, 25–35%; G, 35–60%. Map labels without a slope letter are for flat areas. A final number of 2 following the slope letter on the map indicates that the soil is moderately eroded, and a final number of 3 indicates that the soil is severely eroded. Because soil properties are closely related to the characteristics of their parent materials, the individual soil series are categorized within a USDA parent material class following the classification scheme of Fehrenbacher et al. (1984) and by reviewing updated soil series description sheets. The parent material classes and their descriptions were modified as needed to conform to information gathered during fieldwork for mapping the surficial geology of the quadrangle (Hardy and Weibel 2008). These classes generally correspond with the ISGS surficial geology mapping units.
Within each parent material class, the soil series (table 1) were further organized based upon the thickness of a silty or loamy surface cover, vegetation type under which they formed, and USDA drainage class. Each soil map unit is color-coded according to the soil association in which it belongs. Fehrenbacher et al. (1984) defined soil associations as a grouping of soils on the basis of the parent materials, their surface-soil color, degree of development, and natural soil drainage. Each association was named from two or more of the major statewide soils within the association (Fehrenbacher et al. 1984). Associations also contain numerous minor soils, some of which are in more than one association. The soils in an association tend to form a characteristic pattern on the landscape that is often repeated.
